Build an IBM i Web App in Minutes
with AI Using Valence 6.4
with Rob Swanson and Sean Lanktree
Valence 6.4, the popular web and mobile development framework for IBM i, introduces powerful new AI capabilities and a refreshed modern interface that make application development faster and easier than ever.
In this live demo session, we’ll show how users can build and deploy a fully functional web application in just minutes using Nitro App Builder (NAB) — Valence’s browser-based low-code development tool.
The latest release introduces a completely redesigned Valence Assistant that allows developers to create the building blocks of an app using plain language, automatically generate application documentation, and receive intelligent development suggestions. New features like the Data Chat Widget also allow users to explore and interact with their data through natural conversation — all while keeping sensitive data securely on the IBM i.
Whether you’re an experienced RPG developer or a power user familiar with your system’s data, Valence 6.4 makes it easier than ever to quickly build modern IBM i web applications with little or no coding.
